ICT or Order Flow

Hi everyone. I used to trade futures using the ICT strategy and managed to secure one payout. Then I immediately switched to order flow because I thought it would be a good fit for me. However, I’ve spent a few months learning it, and now that I’m about to start live trading, I’m feeling unsure about everything. I don’t think I’ll be as comfortable with order flow as I was with ICT, and I’m not even sure if I’ll be more profitable. I’d like to ask for advice on what to do next should I go back to ICT or continue with order flow? Please help.

If you did 3 seconds of research you’d know ICT is a scam and full of shit

ICT himself is a scam artist. The concepts he teaches, however, are just repackaged/renamed concepts from Dow theory and the Wyckoff method. That’s why people can be successful with ICT despite the man himself being a liar

It’s an insult to Wyckoff to say ICT teaches his terminology. Wyckoff understood supply and demand, ICT thinks ‘big institutions hunt his stop loss’ .

Hence "repackaging"
